Finding No Network Neighborhood Icon on the Desktop

you boot the system into Windows 98. The 3Com

not display the Network Neighborhood icon on the desktop. See "Changing
Network Settings" in this document to configure your system.

The 3Com Windows user diagnostic program is not available on the Windows
